Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. An electronic device comprising: a housing comprising a wall; a cable routed along a surface of the wall; a first protrusion protruding from the surface; a second protrusion protruding from the surface; and a recessed portion between the first protrusion and the second protrusion, the recessed portion being along a first direction in which the cable is routed, wherein a portion of the cable is held between a side surface of the recessed portion in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and the side surface of the recessed portion holding the portion of the cable is positioned lower than the surface.

2

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the wall is a partition wall of a component container in the housing, and the component container is configured to removably house a component.

3

3. An electronic device comprising: a housing comprising a wall, the wall comprising a first protrusion protruding from a surface of the wall and a second protrusion protruding from the surface and a recessed portion between the first protrusion and the second protrusion; and a cable routed between the first protrusion and the second protrusion along a longitudinal direction of the recessed portion, and held by a side surface of the recessed portion, and the side surface of the recessed portion holding the cable is positioned lower than the surface.

4

4. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein at least one of the first protrusion and the second protrusion comprises a flared portion that flares toward a side on which the cable is routed at a position higher than the surface of the wall on which the first protrusion and the second protrusion are formed.

5

5. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein a distance from a lower surface of the flared portion to a deepest position of the recessed portion is larger than a diameter of the cable.

6

6. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein a distance from the flared portion of one of the first protrusion and the second protrusion to a portion opposite to the flared portion of the other of the first protrusion and the second protrusion is smaller than a diameter of the cable.

7

7. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein the flared portion comprises an inclined surface that introduces the cable to the recessed portion, and the inclined surface is formed on a surface of the flared portion.

8

8. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein a height of at least one of the first protrusion and the second protrusion from the surface of the wall on which the first protrusion and the second protrusion are formed is equal to or less than a diameter of the cable.

9

9. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein a width of the recessed portion in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the recessed portion is equal to or less than a diameter of the cable.

10

10. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein the at least one of the first protrusion and the second protrusion is formed in a columnar shape.

11

11. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein one of the first protrusion and the second protrusion is a vertical wall, and the electronic device further comprises a second recessed portion on a side surface of the vertical wall at a portion that faces the other of the first protrusion and the second protrusion.

12

12. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein the recessed portion comprises an inclined surface in an outer edge in the longitudinal direction of the recessed portion, wherein a depth of the inclined surface from the surface of the wall on which the first protrusion and the second protrusion are formed increases toward a center of the recessed portion along the longitudinal direction of the recessed portion.

13

13. The electronic device of claim 3 , wherein the wall further comprises a third protrusion and a second recessed portion between the third protrusion and the first protrusion.

14

14. The electronic device of claim 13 , further comprising a second cable routed between the third protrusion and the first protrusion along the longitudinal direction of the second recessed portion, and held by a side surface of the second recessed portion.
